10 things celebrity World Cup visitors (eg. Tom Cruise, Victoria Beckham or Mick Jagger) wouldn't experience in South Africa on their 6* platinum tours:

1) The taste of aloe juice directly from the leaf (ew!!)
2) "Gaan kak in die mielies"
3) A rocky beach walking/running trail that is only 50cm wide but still has signs with road names.
4) A petrol attendant called "Miemies" doing a Micheal Jackson impersonation while filling up your "gas".
5) Hanging out on top of a water-tower, drunk as a skunk.
6) Misjudging the force of an ocean wave and being crunched onto a submerged rock.
7) Playing "windpomp"
8) Horse-drawn carts taking up the entire turning-phase time to turn right over a major 2-lane street.
9) An upside-down panoramic view of South Africa's last indigenous forest *boing boing*
10) Jack Paro1 ("bra, hy lewe soos 'n straatmeit")

Now I know some people who may have more to add to this list - please feel free to add them as comments!
